4747. It was narrated from 'Aishah, the Mother of the Believers, that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "It is
not permissible to kill a Muslim except in one of three cases: A adulterer who has been married, who is to be stoned; a man who kills a Muslim deliberately; and a man who leaves Islam and wages war against Allâh, the Mighty and Sublime, and His Messenger, who is to be killed, crucified or banished from the land.” (Sâhîh)
